Expanded column addition and subtraction methods
Dear parents, families and carers,
To assist with your child’s homework and revision at home with the expanded column addition and subtraction methods, which are a part of the current English National Curriculum for Maths, we have found some tutorial videos made by some Year 3 students in England to demonstrate how it is done. We hope these resources will be of use to you and will help build your child’s skills and confidence in these areas which are new to them. We are very pleased to say they are already having that ‘aha! moment’ in class, which shows the amazing power of having a growth mindset!

Times Tables
I recently found this resource which can randomly generate times table questions, along with their inverse operations (division). You can play online, either on desktop or laptop, or print out a .pdf version to test your child's skills. Simply select the times table/s you wish to practise (we are currently looking at 3x, 4x, 6x, and 8x in Year 3).
